JACOB RUDOY, OF HAIFA, PALESTINE OIL STOVE Application filed July 21,

This invention relates to stoves, and has a special reference to oilstoves employing wick burners.

One of the objects of the present invention is the provision ofimprovements in stoves of the indicated character, whereby water may beheated and food may be cooked at the same time with the same set ofburners, thereby economizing the use of oil, and also savingconsiderable time in accomplishing the various services in connectionwith the cooking of food and the heating of water.

Another object of the invention is the provision of improvements-instoves of the indicated character whereby the wicks of the burners maybe readily shifted from one position in relation to the usual flues to aposition in which the wicks may be trimmed, and also for the purpose ofcleaning the parts replacing the wicks whenever the occasion arises.

The nature of the invention and its distinguishing features andadvantages will appear when the following specification is read inconnection with the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a frontView of a stove embodying the features of the present invention;

Figure 2 is a section taken on the line 22 of Figure 1 and looking inthe direction indicated by the arrow;

Figure 3 is an enlarged View, illustrating more clearly the means forraising and lower ing the burners of the stove;

Figure 4c is a section taken on the line 44 of Figure 3 and looking inthe direction indicated by the arrows;

Figure 5 is an enlarged vertical section through one of the burner finesand water heaters;

Figure 6 is a section taken on the line 66 of Figure 5 and looking inthe direction indicated by the arrow.

Referring now more particularly to the drawings, it will be apparentthat the stove includes a frame 10 having ends 11, a top 12 supported bythe ends 11, and a back plate 13 secured to the ends 11 and extendingdownwardly from the under side of the top 12. The top 12 is providedwith grids 14,

equal in number to the number of burner units used, there being three inthe present instance. Each burner unit includes a cylindrical or tubularflue 15 which is arranged directly below its related grid 14. The flue-15 has a jacket 16 which provides a water space 17 surrounding the fiue15, and water tubes 18 extending transversely of the flue 15 communicatewith the water space 17. The lower end of the flue 15 has an annularskirt 19 provided with a hand opening which is closed by a hinged door20. The flue 15 is supported in fixed position by a water inlet pipe 21and a return pipe 22, both of which are secured to the back plate 13,and are also connected with the jacket 16 in communication with thewater space 18. The pipes 21 of the several flues 15 connect with a feedpipe 23 leading to a water supply tank 24 .above the stove. The returnpipes 22 of the several flues are connected with a common pipe 25 whichestablishes communication with the interior of the tank 24 and the pipe22. Each of the burner units also includes a burner 26 including a wick27 and the usual screw 28 for adjusting the wick 27. Each burner 26 ismounted on an oil tube 29. The tube 29 is closed at one end as at 30,and its opposite end is connected with a basin 31 which receives thelower valved end of an oil container 82 which supplies oil to the tube29 by gravity feed, to keep the wicks 27 of the burners saturated.

The burners 26 are movable up and down so that the upper ends thereofwill project respectively into the skirts 19 of the fines 15, and alsoto be brought to the position as shown in dot and dash lines in Figure 1for the purpose of trimming the wicks and also for cleaning the burnerswhenever the occasions arise. This is accomplished by the provision ofmeans presently to be described. A guide 33 is fixed to each of the ends11 of the frame 10. A slide 3% has guided up and down movement on theguide 33. The tube 29 projects through the slide 34;. The slide isconnected with a rock shaft 35 having its opposite ends journaled in theends 11, by a link 36 pivotally connected with the slide 34- as at 37and pivotally connected as at 38 with an arm 39 rigidly secured to theshaft 35. Cine end of the shaft 35 has a handle 4:0 rigidly securedthereto. It will now be understood that by pulling downward on thehandle 40 the burners 26 may be brought to the down position, shown indot and dash lines in Figure 1, and that by moving the handle 40upwardly, the burners will be projected into the skirts 19 of the flues15. It will be ap parent that when the burners are projected into theskirts 19, it is only necessary to open the doors 20 for the purpose oflighting the wicks.

From the foregoing it will be apparent that cooking vessels may bearranged on all of the grids 14 for the purpose of cooking the contentsthereof and at the same time the water which is allowed to enter thewater spaces 17 of the lines 15 will be heated to fur nish hot water forvarious purposes.

l/Vhat is claimed is:

A stove having the combination of fixed fines, oil burners, an oil feedtube for the burners on which they are mounted in alinement respectivelywith said flues, guides respectively on the ends of the stove, slideshaving guided up and down movement on said guides respectively said feedtube having its opposite ends connected respectively with said slides, arock shaft supported by the stove ends, arms on said shaft, linkspivotally connected respectively with said arms and also pivot-allyconnected respectively with said slides, and a handle rigidly secured tosaid shaft, the provision and arrangement being such that the burnerswill be normally projected into the lower ends of said fines, and bemovable downwardly to positions clear of said fines and upwardly intotheir projected positions in the flues by manipulating said handle.
